Chapter 251, please go down the mountain
The golden snake stood alone in the wind, messy as he watched a thousand white tiger guards slowly move away.
In fact, he had doubts in his heart, but he was not sure, but when he saw Xue Jian's true face, he was a little relieved.
After a long time, he muttered something in a low voice.
"Take care, Master!"
In the team that is gradually moving away, there is a lot of laughter and laughter.
Mo Jiuweng raised his head and took a big sip of wine, laughing.
"That golden snake's expression is so wonderful, haha...... I knew that I had taken off my mask and let him see who I was. ”
The old drunkard has been disguised as Zhuo Duyun for the past few months, staying in the Junhou Mansion, helping Xue Jian take care of the house while raising his "little pet".
When the others heard his words, they burst into laughter.
They are all the elites of the White Tiger Chamber of Commerce, and they can be regarded as cronies cultivated by Xue Jian.
When the Five Poisons Sect attacked Black Tiger Mountain, many people were present and formed grudges, but with this trip to the north, their previous grudges were slowly diluted by their comradeship.
At this moment, there is only emotion in everyone's hearts.
sighed that in just over a year, the former Black Tiger Gang and the Five Poisons Sect have undergone earth-shaking changes because of one person.
All the way south, Xue saw that the speed was not fast.
He saw that this backward land was developing at a breakneck pace.
The official road has been doubled, and there are many wine shops and market towns on the road, and the merchants who come and go are busy and thriving.
Most of these merchants are out-of-town merchants.
Nowadays, the coastal ports have been opened, and there is no exploitation of the Five Poisons Sect, but with the support of the White Tiger Chamber of Commerce, which makes businessmen from all over the world come here, which in turn also drives the economic development of the interior.
When Senhu and the others saw this scene, they were relieved and happy for the people who were living more and more prosperous days.
"Brother, this is all your credit, if it weren't for you, I don't know how many people would starve to death every year, and how many people would be oppressed by bandits and bandits. ”
Senhu gave Xue Jian a thumbs up and praised.
Mo Jiuweng on the side also nodded, and his drunken face showed a look of admiration.
"My old drunkard has never accepted anyone in his life, you are the first person I have served, come, drink one. ”
Xue Jian smiled and pushed off his wine jug and sighed.
"The prosperity of the family and the country, the peace of all the people, this is the ambition of the emperor who has passed through the heavens and latitudes, I don't have this kind of ambition, I just want to make a little money, nothing else, nothing. ”
Sen Hu and the others, as well as the thousand White Tiger guards who followed behind them, all laughed out loud after hearing this.
The president of his own family fought in the north and south and founded the White Tiger Chamber of Commerce, but he said that he was just to make a little money.
"Don't be modest, President. ”
"Yes, President, you earned this little money, and you are close to becoming an emperor in one step. ”
"Haha......"
Everyone laughed again, and Xue Jian also laughed.
He rested his hands behind his head and lay on horseback, looking out at the clear blue sky.
The world is big, the freedom is the greatest, the sky is good, and the money is the best.
He thought about Chu Yiyi again.
Ten days later, Xue Jian and the others finally returned to Black Tiger Mountain, the chief helm of the White Tiger Chamber of Commerce.
Chen Shiwen, Mu Da and other upper-level backbones of the Chamber of Commerce, who learned the news in advance, had already set up a battle and prepared a banquet on Black Tiger Mountain.
Today, the White Tiger Chamber of Commerce has grown to as many as 5,000 people, and its influence is spread throughout the southern part of the empire, and even involves several other surrounding countries, as well as some small island nations.
This is all thanks to the good foundation laid by Xue Jian and Chen Shiwen's business talent.
At the banquet, Xue Jian and Chen Shiwen sat down, and as far as the eye could see, the hilltop square was full of wine tables, and the number of people present was no less than 3,000.
Most of these people had never seen this Divine Dragon Leader who had never seen the head and tail, but they had heard a lot about Xue Jian's reputation.
At this time, everyone saw that the president was so young, and it turned out to be a young man who looked about twenty, which couldn't help but make many people question in their hearts.
The banquet was very noisy, and some of the people sitting far away began to whisper about the young president.
Xue saw that his ears were deaf and clear-sighted, so he could naturally listen to the words of everyone present, but he didn't care.
As he said, the creation of the White Tiger Chamber of Commerce was entirely to make a little money, and it had no intention of taking root in the Southern Ming Empire.
So what does it have to do with the discussions and doubts of those people below?
At this moment, a patrolling guard on the mountain hurried up to the mountain gate to report.
Everyone knew this guard, and seeing that he was so eager, everyone put down their glasses and looked at him.
He trotted all the way to Xue Jian's table of banquets, and said with an anxious expression.
"Tell the president, Vice President Chen, that group of people came again last time. ”
Xue Jian's expression moved, and his gaze fell on Chen Shiwen.
Chen Shiwen naturally knew who the group of people that the guard was talking about, and he hurriedly explained to Xue Jian.
"President, that's right, now the development of our chamber of commerce is gradually on the right track, which has attracted the attention of many overseas forces.
Among them, the Maritime Chamber of Commerce has sent people to come many times to say that they want to buy our Chamber of Commerce, but I have been dragging it out on the grounds that the president is not there, and I have not given them a reply.
When the president came back this time, they must have gotten the news and rushed here. ”
Xue Jian nodded and said calmly.
"In that case, let's see. ”
He had a cooperative relationship with the Maritime Chamber of Commerce, and he was not badly impressed with him, so he had no intention of turning away customers.
At this moment, there was a burst of laughter from the stairs of the avenue to the top of the mountain.
"President Xue, we have been waiting for you for more than a month, and we can be regarded as waiting for you. ”
This is an old man's voice, it sounds full of inner strength, and before he saw anyone, Xue knew that a master was coming.
He immediately got up and greeted him.
Chen Shiwen, Sen Hu and the others all got up and followed behind Xue Jian.
Several bigwigs got up, and the other little brothers, who dared to sit and drink wine and eat meat, also stood up and stood neatly on both sides, full of momentum.
Everyone looked down and saw an old man in white clothes with white hair and white beard, with a middle-aged bookkeeper, walking up slowly.
When the guard saw the two men walking up the hill without permission, he immediately rebuked angrily.
"I said I was going to come up and report, how can you go up the mountain without permission!"
On the mountainside, Xue Jian saw at a glance that the guards there had been subdued by a group of young men and women.
Obviously, this group of people broke into the mountain gate, which is really arrogant.
Xue Jian frowned slightly, waved his hand to signal the guard to retreat, and asked in a cold voice.
"Your Excellency are members of the Maritime Chamber of Commerce?"
The old man in the fancy dress did not respond positively, but asked very politely.
"You are President Xue?"
Chen Shiwen keenly sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so he immediately stepped forward.
"This is the founder of our White Tiger Chamber of Commerce, the current president, Xue Jian.
Lord Grown, this is Elder Wu Qing of the South China Sea Area of the Navigation Chamber of Commerce, known as the South China Sea Frog, and has a great reputation in the entire southern sea area of the Nanyang Continent. ”
The reason why Chen Shiwen said the latter sentence was to remind Xue Jian not to be rash, the other party was not good, but the source was very big and could not be easily provoked.
The old man in the fancy costume looked at Xue Jian carefully and said with a playful smile.
"It's really so young, and the future is terrifying. ”
Xue Jian took a step forward with his hands behind his back, and his momentum gradually released, and he sneered.
"Coming uninvited, it's not the style of a big chamber of commerce, and I ask you to go up the mountain as you go. ”
